The Wild can (briefly) take the top spot in the NHL with a win tonight over the Blackhawks

The Wild has had two days off, and after it played every other day for almost two weeks, it has felt like a month since we saw them beat Nashville 5-2 on Saturday. With the Wild riding high yet again, it goes without saying that the upcoming bye week is going to feel like an eternity.

As the second-place Blackhawks come to town for the second time in as many weeks, the Wild will look to avenge its own overtime loss to this same team and head into its break with the most points in the NHL.
